AI snapshot tool stumbles back into the spotlight with more issues The second coming of Windows Recall has brought with it a litany of issues, reminding users that there's a reason why the snapshotting technology remains a preview for Windows Insiders.

Microsoft was hoping to release Recall in October but ended up pushing the rerelease to December. The company beat its own deadline, but Recall is where it belongs right now: In the Insiders program, with developers and other enthusiasts who are willing to put the AI tool through its paces.

Today, Microsoft announced that Recall is coming off the bench — but there are some caveats. You need to be a Windows Insider on the Dev Channel and own a Copilot+ PC powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite or Snapdragon X Plus chipset in order to access the preview of Recall.
